I Heart Robots

I zapped through this and I stopped at a scene here the movie's heroine (presumably, I didn't even check the role list or the movie itself before posting this), and I'm sorry if I'm spoiling anything here, but when you're watching what is supposed to be robots, and the budget doesn't allow for animatronics, and you have to rely on CGI to do the part, you should at least make sure they can fix things like footprints and shadows underneath them, not to mention having fixed locations on the floor, not hovering around, clearly and fully visible, and then hearing someone saying something to the robot in question and you're still thinking about how fake that looked, now you're supposed to believe that she's actually talking to that hovering robot that you can't pass on as realistic, for a movie.

Another observation was her outfit I saw in one scene, some grey spandex with cut-outs that clearly was made for this movie, possibly the scene only, and it looked, well, judge for yourself, but it had no Earthly business in this movie, and I gathered that she was prowling around trying to avoid one of these floating "robots", I think, and it looked so fake and not realistic at all. The overall acting that I saw is pretty bad, cheesy dialogs (Although, first impression was that this would be one of those narrated movies where the main character talks about herself, others and what's about to transpire before the movie takes off, like the movie Tank Girl (Got the same vibe at first), but that didn't last very long, and whatever similarities it may have had died when I saw the bad acting, dialog, well, basically what I just wrote above...

This is just as bad, and possibly worse than A. I. Assault that I accidentally saw in 2006 which has the same flaws with CGI.

One would think that someone should've reacted to "Hey, why is that robot floating above the ground" or "Why is it moving like it had a stick up it's behind?", and possibly many many more mistakes, before releasing it mainstream.

There's also the possibility that they just threw something together with some yahoos just to make a quick buck in the hopes that people would buy this because of the title, which probably most likely the case here.

So, put this movie back in the "Pick 3, pay for 1"-bin and select something else instead! You'll thank me, I promise!

I Heart Robots is definitely a hidden gem! I stumbled upon this flick during a usual train ride to school and wasn't disappointed. It's quick, fun, and honestly, it's the kind of entertainment us younger folks appreciate-straight to the point without dragging on. Now, let's talk about Franzi Schissler. She's not just good in this; she's drop-dead gorgeous and completely steals the show with her charisma and action-packed performance. I've noticed some low ratings floating around, and I can't help but think they've got to be from Baby Boomers or old-school cinephiles who can't appreciate the simple pleasures of VFX robots and stunning actors doing their thing. Since when did we start hating on cool visual effects and beautiful people saving the world? This movie delivers all that with a style that's perfect for anyone looking for a fun ride without the pretentious cinematic fluff. Seriously, if you're into fast-paced action and want to enjoy your popcorn, give this movie a shot. It's worth it for Franzi alone, but you'll stay for the sheer enjoyment.

The overlay music during 3/4 of the movie made it hard to hear any of the characters talking and caused too much background noise which in turn made it unenjoyable. The cgi robots was very poor could tell they were not there nor walking etc. The movie was confusing throughout except for the beginning.. The movie, plot, cgi, etc Could of been so much better! They were sisters but yet seemed from two different countries and two different families. Was one good and one bad? Who was the good? How did a simple bullet manage to take out advanced robots? There were so many holes left unfilled in this movie.

The movie is quick and fun, and honestly, I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. Franzi Schissler, who plays the lead, is absolutely gorgeous-she totally owns the screen. Her character's mix of badass and vulnerability kept me hooked. The effects, though, needed some work. You could tell the budget wasn't huge, but the movie's heart made up for it. The story, set in a dystopian future where humans and robots are at odds, is full of action and keeps things moving at a good pace. It might not be a blockbuster, but it's got a cool, indie vibe that makes it stand out. Perfect for a train ride when you want something entertaining without having to think too hard. Franzi alone makes it worth watching, but the movie's energy and pace keep it engaging all the way through.

I wouldn't call I Heart Robots a perfect movie but I would call it a pretty enjoyable watch. CGI is unfortunately lacking in some parts and probably needed more time and or money to be refined but it is a quick moving journey and doesn't require a crazy attention span. Music was also pretty cool, a lot of different genres and i like the mix b3cause it took you through the journey. And also I really really liked the character of the emotional support robot Q who was fun and hilarious at points. Wish more storylines had concluded but maybe the film is aimed to have a sequel in the near future with (hopefully) a higher budget....
